Tineco Floor One S3 Hard Floor Vacuum/Mop Review

Tineco Floor One S3 Hard Floor Vacuum/Mop Review

Blog Article

A name that is becoming more and more popular with all sorts of vacuum cleaners and related products is Tineco. Beyond their cordless vacuums, one of their most popular product lines is what they call wet/dry vacuums. We would call them hard floor cleaners, and we’ve also seen them referred to as cordless electric mops, too. Regardless, Tineco has several of them, and the first we bought to test was the Tineco Floor One S3 Smart wet n dry vacuum Cleaner. We’re impressed with the Tineco Floor One S3 vacuum/mop in many ways. We think it’s best for homes with mostly or all hard flooring. As a vacuum, the Floor One S3 does well with debris pickup on all kinds of hard flooring, but we would only use it on carpeting in very limited doses. While it can clean up spills and messes of any size, we think it's best suited for minor spills as bigger messes lead to more involved cleaning of the vacuum itself.

We’ve tested a lot of these hard floor cleaners over the past few years and have never really been that big of a fan. But after putting the Tineco Floor One S3 through all kinds of tests over a week, we think we’ve finally figured out why these cleaners are so popular. We have Tineco to thank for that as they’ve solved some of the problems we’ve noticed in the past with similar machines.

The Floor One S3 sits in the middle of a growing number of Tineco hard floor cleaners. It was preceded by the iFLOOR and iFLOOR 3. The iFLOOR 3 is quite similar in specification but has a small battery, a shorter run time and lacks the more technologically oriented features of the S3. After the S3’s introduction, Tineco released a handful of S5 variants and more recently an S7. As we review those models we’ll provide links to them.

The Tineco Floor One S3 is cordless, and a lot of companies are putting out cordless versions of these because it is such a natural fit. Not only because it gives you more freedom without the cord but also because these machines don’t need a large motor and thus don’t need a lot of power. So, they can do the job just as well without the cord and still give you a lot of battery life.
